G7 pledges to quit fossil fuels faster, no new deadline | British Chamber Of Commerce Singapore
Press release: CNA The G7 pledged on Sunday (Apr 16) to quit fossil fuels faster and urged other countries to follow suit, but failed to agree to any new deadlines on ending polluting power sources like coal. The language reflects the depth of disagreements among the allies on the balance between climate action and energy security, with host Japan leading a pushback against the most ambitious proposals discussed.
